HIROSHIMA TO NAGASAKI 4-DAY VIGIL

N/A

HIROSHIMA TO NAGASAKI 4-DAY VIGIL

$700 million dollars has just been allocated to military spending. The expressed desire for “usable” nuclear weapons makes annihilation an imminently more threatening possibility. The consequences are unfathomable. To prevent this horrific potential from taking place, we must address it.

Coming together as a community, we wish to devote the time and space this issue deserves. For four days between the anniversaries of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, a vigil will take place on the Greenfield Common to bear witness, deepen understanding and take action. Besides focusing on the dangers nuclear weapons pose, we also want to affirm life, imagination and joy. With grassroots creativity, we want to express the magnificence of the world and its cultures. Along side the vigil, individuals and groups are invited to share displays, activities and performances. Related discussion groups, workshops and events will take place day and evening in other venues throughout Greenfield.

Films listed as at GCC campus are at the downtown location.

Film: Conviction

Conviction is a documentary film about three Dominican nuns who took the proliferation of nuclear arms in the country personally. These women saw it a their duty, their mission, their religious calling, to break into a missile silo in Colorado, chant, pour their own blood and get jailed for their beliefs. They were convicted and sentenced to Federal Prison for their non-violent protest at a Minuteman III missile site in Northern Colorado.

The film evokes important conversations about the role of religion in politics, the role of nuclear weapons in national defense and the role of International Law in the Federal Courts.
